chuck schumer, senator schumer of new york is the chairman of the inauguration and he is kicking off the ceremony right now by making some introductory remarks. he will be the master of ceremonies for this. we'll take a little bit of a listen to him. >> despite the conflict which engulfed the nation and surrounded the city, the dome continued to rise. on december 2, 1863, the statue of freedom, a woman, was placed atop the dome where she still stands today. in a sublime irony, it was a former slave, now free american, phillip reed, who helped to cast the bronze statue. now, our present times are not as perilous or as despairing as they were in 1863, but in 2013, far too many doubt the future of this great nation. and our ability to tackle our own domes. today's problems are retractible. the times are so complex, the differences in the country and the world so deep. we will never overcome them. when thoughts like these produce anxiety, fear and even despair, we do well to remember that americans have always been and still are a practical, optimistic, problem-solving people. and that,
